can NFC tags readers, especially on Android, open a webpage stored on the tag after being scanned?
I don’t want to store a URL, I want to store a webpage in plain text and have that render after it is scanned. Is this supported?
<html><body>No signal? Bookmark this page!<img src="http://bit.ly/example"/>Test Image</img></body></html>
The above example is only 106 bytes, so can fit on most NFC tags, would this open in a webpage or can there be certain instructions to render it as a webpage?
If you set the MIME type of the tag to
text/html, it is possible that this will be rendered in browsers set up to read NFC tags containing that MIME type. Whether there are any such browsers, I cannot say. The AOSP Browser app does not support this — the only NFC tags it supports are ones withhttporhttpsschemes for URLs, based on the current contents of its manifest.
